if you are doing short journeys the alternator wont get a chance to charge the battery, from what it takes out of the battery on turnover to start the car wont be fed back into the battery on a short run. Drive everywhere with your side lights on and this will keep the alternator and battery in tip top condition.
Seems to be a subaru thing
